Are there any rules, laws, or regulations regarding this?

SFHs are largely exempt from many regulations such as rent control.

@Jonathan Greene @Jay Hinrichs @Nicholas L.Note: Each state has their own way of handling and regulating foreclosures, and as someone who is not specializing in foreclosures I can give you only general ideas and information. 

A tenant complaining online might indicate that the property manager handled them appropriately, so be sure to ask the manager for their side of the story.7.

Bacon is more yummy than a Christmas tree, but I bet I'm going to have a whole lot less regulation growing Christmas trees... however, before we even get to that, it's necessary to know that the inquiry is even about bacon v Christmas trees, rather than Bacon v grapes. 

Big cities tend to have more regulations, more crime, more leftist-leaning policies that hurt investors and private property rights, etc.

Careful going outside state lines -- contract for deed is not allowed in Texas.I didn't think COD is illegal in Texas, just perhaps not recommended anymore, because it is difficult to comply with the rules or regulations. 

So you missing that investors are well compensated for the risk associated with the various policies/regulations. 

Seacoast NH, for example, has some great potential with short-term rental markets (Airbnb, VRBO), especially in towns like Portsmouth or Hampton, but the regulations can be a bit tricky.

STRs are an option too, but you’ll need to navigate stricter regulations in some areas.
